Geocache Description:



Deep in these woods stands a structure that was never meant to last—only to be climbed.

Long ago (or maybe not that long ago), a group of kids built this lookout from whatever wood they could find, hammering dreams into planks and hauling them higher and higher into the trees. No walls were added, because walls would’ve blocked the view. Instead, they built up—three uneven floors stacked like a challenge daring gravity to try harder.

Time hasn’t been kind to the lookout. Boards creak, gaps have widened, and the whole place feels like it’s one good storm away from returning to the forest. But somehow, it’s still standing. And still climbable.

Each level tells a story:
• The first floor was for planning and watching.
• The second floor was for daring.
• The third floor was for those brave enough to climb just a little higher.

This geocache was hidden here to reward explorers who don’t mind a bit of wobble, a bit of mystery, and a place that feels forgotten by everyone except the trees. Take a moment to look around, listen to the woods, and imagine the laughter and footsteps that once echoed through this handmade tower.

Sign the log, respect the structure, and leave the lookout to keep aging quietly among the branches.
